Great place to spend time! Quiet, clean, spacious sites, water views. Sites closer to the water are well shaded. The only thing to make better would be sewer connection at the sites!

Wonderful campground. Shower houses were very well kept and thoroughly cleaned each day. Campsites were cleaned after campers left in preparation for incoming campers. Check in and out was smooth and staff was friendly and helpful. The dump station was level with good access. We hope to come back.

If you bring a dog ,have a 6 foot leash. Its the rule. If your dog/dogs bark please try to keep them at home or kennel them. Nothing spoils A camping experience quicker than barking dogs. Inconsiderate pet owners who leave their dogs poop should be banned from Corp. Campgrounds. We watched A dog owner let his dog run loose and poop at the swim area. He left it. If enforcement continues to be lax ,this behavior will only get worse. I have watched the Park Ranger drive right on by barking dogs,dogs with very long leashes and excessive loud music. They seem to shy away from confrontation.if these problems were adressed in A timely manner it would make for A much more enjoyable camping experience. I have watched campers have harsh words with their neighbors and nearly come to blows over unruly pets.

Baxter is our favorite campground. The grounds and restrooms are clean. The people working are always friendly and helpful. The only con is you have to plan 6 months ahead, especially for weekends, to get a spot.
